BRAD LYLE: I know he [Big Boss Man] wasn't nominated, by my god, how god
awful obnoxious can you get?

CHRIS BIRD: Others will likely say bad things to say about Vince Russo, so
let me just say that Kevin Kelly deserves a slow death by rabid weasels,
and DJ Skribble deserves to be dunked in a vat of acid.

JASON BOUGGER: Bagwell (damn his annoying fake laugh) wins with a slight
edge over Madden (face full of stuff!!! face full of stuff!!!).

LAGMONSTR: Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. She makes my ears bleed. She can't
act and can't wrestle.

SCOTT W.:  Russo, Madden, and Ryder.  The real Triple Threat.  Hey, I
wonder if Ryder will rig the RSPW Awards like he does the awards over at
1shill.com *cough* I mean 1wrestling.com.

DONNIE VOMIT: Given his comments in Australia, Kevin Nash has to be among
the most detremental wrestlers in a company chock full of them.  Bob
Ryder's constant hypocracy and ever expanding, gelatinous stomach wins him
runner up. Goldberg's roid rage and abysmally lacking wit (Hunter Hearst
Son-of-a-bitch?) gets him the bronze.

MARCUS SPARKS: Madden works very hard at being a good heel commentator,
and often ends up being stupid.  I don't know why Buff thinks as highly of
himself as he does.  Vince Russo needs to stop living in the X-Files
world... there isn't a conspiracy, it's just you can't book.

JOHN C.: I never thought somebody would beat Buff Bagwell or Billy Gunn
for this award but Vince Russo somehow managed to do it. Congratulations
Vinny.

ANDY P. GOSS: I'm treating Most Obnoxious as a compliment.  For me, it's
the Love to Hate award.  Sort of a Favo(u)rite Heel thing.  Shane Douglas
can make you boo him and fast.  At Starrcade, he had the MCI Center in a
frenzy in mere seconds (remember, I was there).  Steven Richards's
sore-throated preacher voice is wonderful, and it drives the crowd nuts.  
And Kurt Angle, who I thought would be forced to turn face, has managed to
keep himself a heel quite easily.

MATT CUMMINGS: Not on the nominations list but Sean Shannon is included on
the list of most annoying personalities for personal reasons. Besides, if
Bob Ryder can be included, other shameless self promoters like Shannon
should be as well. Oh yeah, Sean if you get to see this, I notice your no
longer writing, bit off more than you could chew? From your incesent
whining about CRZ, to your chooseing to fued with the morons with ECW, you
have become the epitomy of crap writer. It is not necessary to justify
everything in print. You will not be missed here.

JON WALTON: I don't think any choice was easier than Madden was for this
one.

JONAH ROSCH: Only one thing to say about this question. Please, please,
please, take David Arquette off television. No one likes him. No one finds
him funny. He is the most obnoxious person in entertainment today. And
please never show him on WCW ever again. And let's really never talk about
him winning the world title ever again. Yeah, it got people talking,
didn't it, Vince.

JAMES HOWARD: I don't care what has to be done to get Joel Gertner to be
quiet. Just somebody, please, do it *now*.

JOE GAGNE: Oh man, how am I supposed to choose between Madden and Russo
for the top slot?  I?ll have to go with Madden as #1, since he was on TV
every week. Perennial favorite Tony Schiavone takes third.

BOB MORRIS: Vince Russo got my top vote here not for anything he did on
TV, but for what he did off-screen. Every time he opened his mouth about
whatever it was the Internet fanbase or the critics had to say about him,
he only made himself look dumber. There's too many of his idiotic quotes
for me to list, but needless to say, he probably would have been better
off keeping his mouth shut about certain things.

OFFSPRUNG182: Good thing Kurt is supposed to be obnoxious, the other two
aren't (or are they?)

TROY OLSON: Buff moved up to number 2 (an approriate term) after his
assinine interview with Alex Marvez.  Still, not enough to beat the king
of the idiots, Vince Russo.

JEREMY DELINE: Justin Credible would have won this category as most
obnoxious world champion who doesn't deserve to be champion hands-down if
it wasn't for the inclusion late in the race of 'New Yawk Tuff' Vince
Russo in this category. As Annoying as Credible's catchphrases and poses
are, at least he tries to please the fan. Watching Russo spray spittle and
thrust his hips, while on the microphone is awful. Watching Russo scream
abuse at women suggests he needs therapy. Watching Russo put himself over
Ric Flair and Booker T, and on equal footing with Goldberg was a
Nightmare. Watching him try to have the best of both worlds as a 'cool
heel' was gag-inducing. Damn you Russo..the one thing I enjoyed about
Russo? After picking it up in a CRZ report, I watched for his entrance
video showing off the mean streets of New York. My god, is that man ever
funny.

NATHAN LONEY: No, Mark, I don't hate you because I'm a mark.  I hate you
because you're a blowhard who has no announcing talent at all.  Bob Ryder
continues with his great showing as a total jackass.  Finally, Steven
Richards makes me, and other fans, HATE the Right to Censor.  He's that
good at being obnoxious.  The sad thing is that I can tell that Stevie is
playing a character... what about the two above him?

BILL LEHECKA: I would say something about Mark Madden, but everyone else
has.  I'm not about to make his heelish ego as big as his belly.

BLAZEJ SZPAKOWICZ: I was amazed to find out just how much I hate Vince
Russo... X-Pac's amazingly irritating, particularly as he never, ever,
ever, under any circumstances whatsoever, *loses*. At least Triple H's has
earned that right through carrying the WWF on his back for the past twelve
months. What's Waltman's excuse? Finally, I mean it in the best possible
way when Kurt Angle gets my third vote. He's meant to be obnoxious, and
whoo boy does he accomplish it beautifully.

LAWRENCE BENEDETTO: I almost hate that Skribble jagoff as much as I hate
X-Punk.

MIKE PLYLEY: Chyna gets my vote here solely based on her nauseating
ten-minute spot on Raw.  Yes, Chyna, you've fought so hard for women
everywhere.  You've taught us all how destroying your body through
thousands of dollers of plastic surgery is good.  You've gotten into
Playboy not through your freakish body, but through how good a person you
are.  I hate you, you ugly mannequin.

TOM CRUZ: Russo obviously wins this one. The only way he'll ever get off
the shit list is if he went back to the WWF so the Undertaker could stab
him in the face. Mark Madden gets the #2 spot, appropriately. Trying to
decide who's worse between Madden and Russo is like trying to decide
between death by fire ants crawling up your ass, or death by having
someone cut your legs off one inch at a time. Either way, it's going to
suck, and you're just as dead.

JEFF "FRO" WAHLMAN: Vince Russo was hilarious with all his excuses and
lame comments about how foreigners can't get over.  Madden just annoys me.  
"Super-Shill" Bob Ryder and his cheap shots and feuds is really lame. Does
ANYONE listen to WCW Live anymore?

JBELL55146: Will somebody please just shoot Mark Madden and put him out of
his misery. If I have to turn on nitro to see 'The Worlds Sexiest Big Man'
plastered on my screen, I am gonna take my TV and throw it out the window.
